The sun was setting in the west, it was nearly dusk.
In a park, a man and a woman sat in a secluded corner.
"It's a bit cold, are you done yet? Soone might co." Zhang Xiaoyue shivered slightly, her face as red as a persimmon, and she pleaded softly.
"Don't worry, I'm watching!"
A mont later, Chen Shouyi finally withdrew his hand.
Zhang Xiaoyue quickly tidied her clothes, looking around nervously like a guilty thief, and only felt relieved when she saw no one was around. She coquettishly glanced at him, "Satisfied now?"
"Yeah, it's fine." Chen Shouyi chuckled. He could only enjoy a little this way, Zhang Xiaoyue was just too weak: "Have you missed lately?"
"Who missed you?" Zhang Xiaoyue said insincerely, handing over a bag as she shyly added, "Oh right, I almost forgot, this is for you."
"What is it?" Chen Shouyi asked curiously as he took it.
"You'll know once you see it."
Actually, Chen Shouyi had already seen it. He took out a pair of fluffy knitted gloves from the bag: "Did you knit these?"
"I just learned how, they aren't very well made. If you don't like them, you can give them back to ." Zhang Xiaoyue said, a bit embarrassed.
"I like them, why wouldn't I?" Chen Shouyi happily put the gloves on, lying through his teeth, "They're quite warm, and they look nice too."
"Glad you like them, I'll knit a scarf for you next ti." Zhang Xiaoyue said, her face full of sweet happiness.
"No need, you see I don't wear scarves much. It's the thought that counts." Chen Shouyi felt touched, "Sorry, I've been quite busy these days and haven't had ti to see you."
"It's okay, your work is important, don't worry about ." Zhang Xiaoyue said considerately. Although the dates were sweet, she knew that now Chen Shouyi was a person of significance with seemingly endless tasks each day.
Being able to see him once a week was already satisfying enough.
Chen Shouyi also felt a bit embarrassed. Sotis when he was imrsed in training, he would lose track of ti.
After all, no girlfriend could be as exciting as training.
The two lingered together for a while, and as darkness fell, the date ca to an end.
...
At night, Chen Shouyi quickly skimd through the recent newspapers.
"Our country's technological developnt enters the fast lane, with a 71% growth in industrial output in 2018, showing a good trend, especially in heavy and military industries, which grew by 73% and 87% respectively..."
"A new generation of high-frequency bandwidth reconnaissance satellite, launched at 12:50 on February 10, 2019, from the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center, successfully ascended to orbit and was put into official use..."
As he read, he couldn't help but frown. The satellite's re-launch was naturally a good thing, but this satellite was quite fragile. To the Barbarian God, if it wanted to, it could easily destroy it, and humans would be helpless.
"Ding dong ding dong!"
There was a knock on the door outside.
Chen Shouyi got up to open the door; it was his cousin Jiang Yanyan.
"What's up?"
"Brother, Aunt asked to bring you so fruit." Jiang Yanyan said with a smile, holding a fruit platter.
"Oh, thank you!" After taking it, Chen Shouyi felt it was a bit distant to shut her out, so he asked, "I heard from Xing Yue that you're going to school tomorrow?"
"Yeah, our winter break was only five days." Jiang Yanyan said honestly, "I report to school tomorrow, then go for military training in another world."
Today's students are not as carefree as they were before the changes. Not only are the academic loads heavy, but the physical and military requirents are also high, with at least two military trainings during the winter and sumr breaks every year. In tis of crisis, there would be temporary trainings.
"By the way, you don't have your own sword yet, do you?" Chen Shouyi recalled sothing and asked.
"I do." Jiang Yanyan quickly replied.
"Don't ntion the low-end ones, hold on..." Chen Shouyi said, returning to the bedroom. After putting the fruit platter on the table, he took out a long sword he had recombined from his space and sheathed it, advising:
"Be careful when using it, the sword is quite sharp!"
"Thank you, brother!" Jiang Yanyan said with a blush, her heart pounding as she reached out for it.
Excellent Martial Arts Swords are very expensive, and the one her cousin gifted her was certainly not ordinary, a price that could make one gasp.
Having such a cousin is truly wonderful!
"I'll definitely practice hard. Alright, brother, I won't disturb you any longer."
Chen Shouyi nodded his head.
...
General Manager Chen closed the door, and two lively little creatures imdiately popped out from under the bed covers, jumped onto the desk, and continued happily licking the strong divine power-infused at paste, which made Chen Shouyi amused.
He reached his finger towards the red little creature.
The red little thing imdiately growled from its throat, putting on a fierce and evil expression like a fluffed-up little kitten.
Finding it amusing, Chen Shouyi then turned to tease the Shell Lady.
However, the Shell Lady was not deceived; she gave Chen Shouyi a disdainful glance, turned her back to him, showing her behind, and continued licking the at paste without caring in the least.
Like their differing living environnts, one of the little creatures was clearly more nimble, and the other more silly-cute.
Chen Shouyi suddenly felt a bit boring, awkwardly drawing back his hand and stuffing an apple into his mouth casually, he looked at his attribute panel:
Strength: 24.6
Agility: 24.6
Constitution: 24.6
Intelligence: 24.6
Perception: 23.2
Willpower: 23.4
Energy Accumulation: 6.25
Faith Value: 15347.6
Innate Abilities: Self-Healing (Super): 30.01%; Giant Battle Body (Super): 60.01%; Atmospheric Control: 40.01%.
These days, his progress could be described as rapid.
In a re ten days, his strength, agility, constitution, and intelligence each increased by 0.4 points, a growth of about 20%, while his willpower increased by 0.3 points and perception by 0.2 points.
The physical attributes were approaching a level comparable to weak divine power.
Even the strength of his willpower was nearing the level of weak divine power.
Attributes like willpower and strength might seem only slightly less, as if not much difference exists, but in fact, compared to the power of the Barbarian God, it's a whole different story.
One is personal psychic power, while the other gathers the psychic power of all beings.
As can be seen from the terminology, setting aside pure characteristics and control, the latter's power is far superior to the forr.
Generally, using the most important intelligence attribute as a asure, 20 points is demigod level, 22.5 points steps into the weak divine power threshold, 25.0 points and above equates to weak divine power, 27.5 and above is dium divine power, and above 30.0 is high divine power.
With his willpower at 23.4, theoretically speaking, it should be in the realm of weak divine power; in reality, it's only sowhat more powerful than a typical demigod.
Yet, it's still incredibly strong.
And perhaps because this psychic power originates entirely from oneself, unlike divine power filled with various sentient "distractive thoughts," or maybe because the laws of the universe he resides in inherently support this form of psychic power, it's unaffected by Original Force.
Of course, similarly, Original Force does not amplify this kind of psychic power.
Regardless of being on Earth or in another world, its potency remains almost constant.
As early as the ti of the world's transformation, he already possessed telekinesis.
